Good news of the front of restoring UCLA's grants! calmatters.org/education/20...
Thrilled that my paper is out in the @nature.com. We explored how the brain builds complex tasks by compositionally combining simpler sub-task representations. The brain flexibly performs multiple tasks by dynamically reusing neural subspaces for sensory inputs and motor actions

🎇 Excited to finally share JL Romero Sosa’s publication! Results are from single-cell imaging in different subregions of rat frontal cortex during ✨de novo learning. Spoiler: everything is not everywhere all at once www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Nature - The brain can flexibly perform multiple tasks by compositionally combining task-relevant neural representations.

The grants were terminated over alleged DEI violations. University of California attorneys argued the actions were arbitrary and capricious.
Neural mechanisms underlying flexible learning and decision-making are not fully understood. Using single-cell calcium imaging, authors here found that neurons in orbitofrontal and secondary motor cortex exhibit complementary roles in reward learning, with neurons in the former exerting a sustained role in conditions of uncertainty.
I argue that we need to account for the size of the model space when determining sample size, as larger model spaces reduce power. I also show that the commonly used “fixed effects” model selection approach is statistically unreliable. An analysis of the literature suggests shortcomings in both
